‘RHONJ’ Star Dolores Catania Explains Why She ‘Wouldn’t’ Set Up Teresa Giudice After Split From Husband Joe

Dolores Catania isn’t going to be setting Teresa Giudice up with a new man following the latter’s 2019 split from husband Joe Giudice.

During an appearance on Hollywood Life‘s podcast on March 29, Catania confirmed she was not going to be sending men in Giudice’s direction. She noted that she’s “old school,” and claimed that Giudice simply doesn’t need any help in the dating arena.

After explaining to the outlet that Giudice’s four daughters may not be ready to see their mother date quite yet, Catania said the situation is not one she’d like to be involved in. Catania then clarified that she was not against Giudice moving on from her 20-year marriage to Joe and finding love with someone new.

Catania then said that she would love for her Real Housewives of New Jersey co-star to find a Jewish man to date, because she prefers Jewish men herself and likes the way they carry themselves. As she explained, she finds Jewish men to be much more gentle than others, describing them as “very doting.”

“[They’re] not so rough around the edges like the Italian guys [although] there’s very, very sweet Italian men… I wish her to find a good man,” Catania noted.

While Catania and her co-stars recently began filming Season 11 of the Bravo reality series, they were forced to shut down production just days into the project due to the ongoing coronavirus outbreak. That said, Catania is already in her head about what Season 11 will bring, and admitted to being nervous about seeing how the episodes play out.

Catania went on to mention that she will be shooting scenes for The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 11 with her boyfriend, Dr. David Principe. Principe was expected to propose to her at the end of Season 10, when he moved into the dream home they had been building. Dolores Catania’s ex-husband, Frank Catania, had been assisting both her and Principe in this endeavor over the past several months.

As The Inquisitr previously reported, Catania opened up about Giudice’s marriage during an interview with Hollywood Life last year. During that interview, Catania said that if Giudice and Joe aren’t happy, they should “move on peacefully” from their marriage and not waste time being unhappy with one another.

“Life is so precious and time is the most important thing. You can’t get it back. You cannot. So [Teresa and Joe] should just be happy doing what they need to do.”
